???: Restore WindowSettings on Process-Generation #35

Open hoppfrosch opened 9 years ago

hoppfrosch commented 9 years ago

On creation of a process the opened windows should be restored to predefined settings (for example window size & position)

Idea taken from: http://ahkscript.org/boards/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=9169

``#Persistent winmgmts := ComObjGet("winmgmts:") createSink := ComObjCreate("WbemScripting.SWbemSink") ComObjConnect(createSink, "ProcessCreate_") interval := 1 winmgmts.ExecNotificationQueryAsync(createSink, "SELECT * FROM __InstanceCreationEvent WITHIN " . interval . " WHERE TargetInstance ISA 'Win32_Process' AND TargetInstance.Name='notepad.exe'" ) return

ProcessCreate_OnObjectReady(objWbemObject, objWbemAsyncContext) { WinMove, % "ahk_pid " objWbemObject.TargetInstance.ProcessId,, 100, 200, 300, 400 }``
